Abstract
An object-based data storage service receives a request to store a data object in a first location corresponding to a first data storage tier. The request may specify a parameter to enable transitioning of the data object to another data storage tier. In response to the request, the object-based data storage service stores the data object in the first location and monitors access of the data object to determine usage data associated with the data object. The object-based data storage service processes the usage data to determine that the data object is to be transitioned to a second data storage tier. As a result of this determination, the object-based data storage service transitions the data object to a second location corresponding to the second data storage tier.
